Manchester Announces Solar Installations at Seven Municipal Buildings
The Town of Manchester is proud to announce the installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems at seven municipal buildings, including six schools. The solar systems are projected to save the Town more than $100,000 annually in energy costs and more than $2.1 million over the term of the power purchase agreements (PPA).
